hello all,
I have an AUDIGY LS audio card, which needs a special oss driver.
can anyone tell how I can have sound in xine using the osslinux driver from
http://www.opensound.com/
?
for mplayer I can do:
mplayer dvd:// -ao oss:/dev/dsp3
which works for me, but apparently I can't do something similar in xine?
thanks in advance for any answer...
Danny.

O! Thanks.

I was download and run current CVS, but I don't understand what is
"Name of video display". My XF86Config-4 contain section:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Monitor"
Screen 1 "TV" RightOf "Monitor"
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
I was probe both ":0.1" and "TV", but video is not display on screen.
When I use ":0.1" only splash screen present on primary display. Both
video display and control screen is missing on Screen 0 and Screen 1.
Confiruration may be restored only by edit ~/.xine/config

Well... I use ATi closed src drivers which are prone to Xv issues, especially
with video overlay. kdetv works fine until I start up xine with -V xv, then
kdetv won't produce a picture anymore until I restart X.

Hm, strange. Got an ATi TV Wonder LE, BT878 chip here. Works in xawtv, kdetw
etc etc, but not in xine (rc4a/ui0.99.1).
XFree 4.3, kernel 2.6.6.
BUT: Whatever I tell xine-ui about analog TV settings, it discards them. how
can I set them manually in config? Don't see any predefined options.

this feature was added last week to xine-ui cvs.
you can try testing it now and help us fixing any bugs or wait until
next release...

ok, may you please try current cvs? i added the new dialog there with
the "don't bother me again" option.
as soon as we have a consensus about it (including best phrasing and
stuff) we can make a new release.

ok, since i'm partly responsible for this confusion, let me make a
suggestion before we kill this not much welcomed feature:
"The amount of dropped frame is too high, your system might be slow,
not properly optimized or just too loaded."
checkbox: X - "Don't ever show this message again."
buttons:
- "Close"
- "Learn more (http://xinehq.de/index.php/faq#SPEEDUP)";
what do you think?
regards,
Miguel

Not quite sure what you mean by "hogged Xv" here, or what that might have to
do with v4l?
Anyway, xine works fine here using an saa7134 based capture card using kernel
2.6.3. Incidently xine currently doesn't directly support v4l2 and hence
relies on the compatability layer.

Thirded. I run xine on my Powerbook Pismo, and I _know_ it won't get the
full framerate of the stuff I'm playing (640x360 DivX/XviD TV rips from
HDTV source on a 400 MHz G3), but it gets close enough for me. The
warnings are nothing but annoying, and should be thrown out with
yesterday's brussels sprouts.

You can disable it by setting the percentage of discarded/skipped frames
to tolerate in the 'Video' tab to 100%. You must be at the expert
experience level or higher in order to see it. I must agree however, if
"your system is too slow" it is painfully obvious and the popup only
serves to annoy.

Wishing you good fortune,

I am running the latest Xine on Fedora Core 2 test 3. My system is a
Shuttle SN41G2 w/nVidia motherboard and LiteOn DVD. While playing a DVD
like the "Sound of Music", the video will play fine and then after say
20-30 minutes, it will slow down and show one frame every 15-30 seconds
or so. During this painfully slow playback, you can't stop the video or
go from full-screen to window size. After a few minutes, it can
sometimes go back to normal.
Does anyone know why this may be happening? Bug? Configuration problem?

Hi,
I just built and installed xine rc4a and xine-ui 0.99 from source. I
didn't know enough to change anything, so just configure, make, make
check, and make install. All seems well, but I tried to view a wmv file,
and it seems I need something else. I did not see any mention on the web
page of any thing else to download. I am on a linux machine (RH
Enterprise 3 (Linux 2.4.21-9.ELsmp #1 SMP).
Thank you very much.
Don

Maybe you compiled xine without having the X11 development stuff installed (or
it was not found by xine-lib's configure.) This would result in a xine-lib
lacking all X11 output plugins. To check this, see if you have a file
"xineplug_vo_out_xshm.so" in your xine plugin directory.
